Rumors have been flying for some time that Harrison Ford wouldn't be returning for Indiana Jones 5-but a new report seems to hint that the 72-year-old actor would be back for a fifth film, but wouldn't come back for a sixth.

A fifth Indiana Jones film hasn’t even been confirmed yet by Disney, but things are not necessarily looking good for Harrison Ford’s return to the franchise if the film is made.
